Okono-waywemissedthebus-miyaki

After a long siesta post snorkeling, we caught a bus to Kabira Bay to eat and see the views. Factoid: the bay is closed to swimming because it's where cultivating black pearls was first refined as a process and is still used for pearl cultivation. We went straight for food, and tried somewhere we found on Google Maps; Umaru, a restaurant specializing in Okonomiyaki. It's a small rustic building with seaside decor, and had a small griddle embedded in the table for keeping your meal warm. I went for the Ishigaki Beef, Rachel got the Pork with Tofu and Cheese; both their specialties. Oki is one of my favorite foods, and I think this was my favorite version (confirmed post trip to be true). A cold Orion beer (Okinawan brewed) cooled the pallete between bites of tender beef in the cabbage and veggie patty. Rachel's was also delicious, and we really liked the tofu cheese combo. We then left, and accidentally caught the last bus of the night from that side of the island. Totally thought they ran later; if we had gotten another drink or app, we would have been stuck there. Turns out the best Okonomiyaki topping is luck.Baca lagi
